First Aid Measures

Ingestion
Do NOT induce vomiting; guard against aspiration into lungs.
Inhalation
Remove victim to fresh air.
Skin
Wipe off and wash with soap and water.
Eyes
Wash with copious amounts of water for at least 15 min.

Handling and Storage

Storage
Keep in well ventilated area keep away from heat.
Handling
All chemicals should be considered hazardous. Avoid direct physical contact. Use appropriate, approved safety equipment. Untrained individuals should not handle this chemical or its container. Handling should occur in a chemical fume hood.

Hazards Identification

Inhalation
Metal fume fever, wheezing and rales have been reported in workers exposed to fine copper dust. Dyspnea has developed after oral copper exposure. Pulmonary edema and alveolar inflammation have been noted in animals.
Skin
Skin exposure can produce in severe irritation, itching, erythema, dermatitis and eczema; systemic toxicity may result.
Eyes
Redness.
Ingestion
Gastroenteritis with vomiting may occur after ingestion of some copper salts. Mucosal erosions, a metallic taste, burning epigastric sensation and diarrhea may also occur.
Hazards
Vapors may form explosive mixtures with air. Vapors may travel to source of ignition and flash back. Most vapors are heavier than air. They will spread along ground and collect in low or confined areas (sewers, basements, tanks). Vapor explosion and poison hazard indoors, outdoors or in sewers.
UN (DOT)
3009

Exposure Controls/Personal Protection

Personal Protection
Goggles or face shield; plastic gloves (as for gasoline).
Respirators
Wear positive pressure self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA).
Exposure Effects
Increased temperature may be noted in some cases. Abnormally low blood pressure may occur. Mental status may be depressed.
Poison Class
5

Fire Fighting Measures

Autoignition
282
Fire Fighting
Do not extinguish fire unless flow can be stopped. Use water in flooding quantities as fog. Solid streams of water may be ineffective. Cool all affected containers with flooding quantities of water. Apply water from as far a distance as possible. Use foam, dry chemical, or carbon dioxide.
Fire Potential
Moderately flammable.

Accidental Release Measures

Small spills/leaks
Keep sparks, flames, and other sources of ignition away. Keep material out of water sources and sewers. Build dikes to contain flow as necessary. Use water spray to knock-down vapors.

Stability and Reactivity

Incompatibilities
Reacts as bases to neutralize acids.
Stability
Stable.
Decomposition
On combustion, forms toxic gases.
Combustion Products
Fire will produce irritating, corrosive and/or toxic gases.
